Thanks Gerd,<br><br><div>I've been adding/fixing city boundaries in my area, so I'm trying to create my own bounds file. If an admin_level2 can't be found, does it use the <b style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;line-height:19.2000007629395px">--country-abbr </b><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;line-height:19.2000007629395px">option?</span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;line-height:19.2000007629395px"><br></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;line-height:19.2000007629395px">Brian</span></div><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed Oct 29 2014 at 3:28:37 AM Gerd Petermann <<a href="mailto:gpetermann_muenchen@hotmail.com">gpetermann_muenchen@hotmail.com</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

When I attempt to do an address search, it first asks me for the City, but the cities I'm looking for don't show up in the search. Oddly, when it shows the closest cities I can see some of them, but when I do a text search it shows distant oddballs. For example, with 'New York', I see:</div><div>New York, FL</div><div>New York, TX</div><div>New York Mills, MN</div><div><br></div><div>None of these are the New York I'm looking for. I don't even think they are in my input file, but are perhaps coming from the internal memory on my GPS.</div><div><br></div><div>It does appear the NYC addresses are working better - I can see the Bronx Zoo is in The Bronx and Carnegie Hall is in New York, however, I can't key in an address to see if it works because of the address search issue.</div><div><br></div><div>Another thing which has me puzzled is why some POIs are not showing the city/state. For example <a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3139391561" target="_blank">Desert Moon Grille</a> is in <a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/33271879" target="_blank">Danbury</a>, Connecticut. I can find it doing a Food POI search. That works fine. But, when I select it, it shows "Not_set, Fairfield County". Nomination gets the address perfect: <a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3139391561" style="color:rgb(34,68,221);text-decoration:none;font-family:'Helvetica Neue',Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12px;line-height:19.9992008209229px" target="_blank">Desert Moon Fresh Mexican Grille, 113, Mill Plain Road, Danbury, Fairfield County, Connecticut, United States of America</a> . I'm compiling my own bounds file, so I'm surprised it hasn't worked. </div><div><br></div><div>Brian</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div>
